Mentor Graphics FloTHERM XT 2.3.1 FloTHERM XT is a unique, award-winning thermal simulation solution that can be used during all stages of the electronics design process - from conceptual design to manufacturing - improving product quality, reliability and time-to-market. It features the electronics cooling DNA of market-leading FloTHERM® thermal analysis software, and concurrent computational fluid dynamic (Concurrent CFD) technology from FloEFD™. FloTHERM XT tightly couples the MCAD and EDA design flows and cuts design process times by factor of at least 2 when compared to traditional general-purpose simulation products. This enables designers and thermal specialists to quickly and efficiently arrive at an optimum solution. A CAD-centric user interface, as well as geometry engine for complex and arbitrary shaped geometries, enables users to quickly become productive. FloTHERM XT offers CAD connectivity and advanced CAD modeling capabilities which considerably shorten the learning curve. Full geometric and non-geometric SmartParts and library capabilities enable users to access a full set of the most popular components for fast and accurate model creation. FloTHERM XT’s fully integrated environment for defining, solving and analyzing results using parametric variations of geometry, attributes (e.g. material, thermal) plus solution parameters significantly enhances the design optimization process.
